BJP MP Sujeet Kumar has urged the Indian government to remove the title 'Lord' when referring to British colonial administrators in educational materials and official documents, arguing that this practice perpetuates a colonial mindset 75 years after independence. Kumar highlighted how this change aligns with Prime Minister Modi's vision of liberating India from colonial symbols and the "slavery mindset" as part of the nation's journey toward its centenary of independence.
